Though head coach Dabo Swinney would not come and out and say it officially following Monday’s practice at Jervey Meadows, he did insinuate Greg Huegel has won the placekicking job for the second-ranked Tigers.
Swinney says Huegel has separated himself from Alex Spence and B.T. Potter in competition.
“He’s had a great camp,” the Clemson coach said. “Alex has had a good camp and Potter is right there, doing a nice job. But Greg has separated himself right now.”
Of course it is of no surprise Huegel is winning the job. Before tearing the knee up in his plant leg prior to last year’s Boston College game, the senior was having one of the greatest kicking careers in Clemson history.
